Remanded (sent back)
The Board remands the Veteran's claim for service connection for brain cancer to obtain additional evidence regarding potential in-service radiation exposure and a medical opinion on its relation to his condition.
The deciding factor: Additional development is needed to determine if the Veteran was exposed to ionizing radiation during service, as there exists a pre-decisional duty to assist error.
